SAN JOSE, Calif. and
TOKYO, Jan.
8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CAR-ELE JAPAN -- Altera Corporation (NASDAQ:
ALTR) is demonstrating leading-edge automotive solutions based on
its field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technology at CAR-ELE
JAPAN, a premier international
automotive electronics exposition taking place January 14 to 16, 2014, at the Tokyo Big Sight,
in Booth West 8-49. The demonstrations will cover advanced
programmable logic solutions for advanced driver assistance systems
(ADAS), video scaling and graphic acceleration in car infotainment
systems, and use of FPGAs to increase efficiency and performance of
electric vehicle powertrains.
Altera and its partners, including Altima, Fujisoft, Hitachi
Industry, Control Solutions, and TTTech are showcasing
market-ready, FPGA-based offerings. FPGAS are programmable and can
be customized for differentiated features and provide a
cost-effective alternative to ASSPs (application specific standard
products), microcontrollers and GPUs (graphical processor units).
Particularly ideal for automotive applications, due to their small
footprint and lower power requirements, Altera®
Cyclone® SoC FPGAs enable low-cost designs that can
increase system performance and provide design flexibility.
Altera In-booth Demonstrations
All demonstrations are centered inside an integrated "concept
car" to visually illustrate the power of Altera FPGA and SoC
technologies for various automotive systems, and they include:
- An HD-quality stereo vision IP suite and object detection
solution demonstrated with partners Tokyo Tech Saneyoshi Lab and
Fujisoft
- An HD-quality, multi-camera, surround-view solution using the
Hydra Development kit from Altima and high-quality, surround-view
IP from Hitachi Industry and Control Solutions, Ltd.
- The Altera SDK for OpenCL™ design flow showing fast deployment
from algorithm to hardware, and enabling optimized
software/hardware partitioning and multiple algorithm parallel
processing
- An Altera Cyclone V-based Ethernet Audio Video Bridge (A faster
boot for the video image transmission, bypassing the CPU)
- EV (electric vehicle) motor control demo, offering an SoC
framework for multi-axis, simultaneous, high-speed motor
control
